Re: Should the Number One seed be Alloud to pick the Number Two seed?
Actually they haven't won EVERY regional. I agree with you, they have won a large proportion of them. However, Dallas had 118 (3-seed, 2nd Alliance Captain) win there. Additionally, at Virginia (where the 1st-seeded 1156 picked 2nd-seeded 1287), the second and third alliances were the two that participated in the finals.

I don't disagree that there are a large number of times where this does occur, but I suspect (just my speculation, I haven't run any numbers) that the difference between one-seeded teams winning this year is not that different from previous years.
